DALLAS, Feb. 18, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Trax Technologies (Trax), the world leader in Management of transportation expenses (TSM) and Capital Raistone (Raistone), a leading global financial technology company, today announced a joint solution designed to create improved cash flow for carriers and expanded working capital for shippers.
Through this partnership, Trax customers can now get extended payment terms up to 150 days after the invoice due date, while Trax makes payments to their carrier partners on time, with no additional charges for carriers. As a result, the carrier’s on-time payment needs are met, while internal working capital mandates are sufficient for the company shipper.
President Trax Josh Bouk and CEO of Raistone Dave Skirzensky will host “Achieve 100% Carrier Adoption: Working Capital Innovations in Transportation” on Wednesday, February 23 at 11 a.m. EST. Registration is open to participants who want to learn more about debt-free working capital, improved shipper-carrier relationships, and increased carrier loyalty.
“Most of our corporate clients already use various forms of supply chain finance to manage working capital. However, most of these programs are struggling to meet global logistics expenses, which are increasing on average by 7 at 9% of cost of goods sold,” says Bouc. “Through this exciting partnership with Raistone, we can now help our customers grow their working capital programs and improve shipper and carrier cash flow.”
In today’s global transportation logistics environment, carriers running a cash-intensive business need faster payment terms from their shipper partners. Conversely, corporate logistics teams need to improve business cash flow and access to working capital by extending payment terms for transportation services.
“‘Buy now, pay later’ has been an unprecedented hit with consumers, and it’s time the same financing flexibility was extended to all businesses, including freight services,” Skirzenski said. “With Trax, Raistone is focused on providing much-needed working capital to a critical part of the global supply chain. Our solutions ensure easy and fast access to finance, which is now more essential than ever for solve permanent supply chain bottlenecks.”
